hahahahaha aussie sayings....just dont say g'day. if you're not an aussie we dont like it. i cant really think of any because they are second nature really. some are really stupid and only country bumpkins use, some everyone uses (like g'day)

VB? you want VB? yuk!!!! it's not called visitors beer for nothing....

I like XXXX too but hehe vistor beer.

xxxx is a queensland beer. it's xxxx because queenslander's (ie me) have trouble spelling beer.

Get yourself some Empire beer, nice!! or Crown Lager....but then I'm a lager kinda guy.....

Isn't it true that ONLY Queenslanders drink XXXX beer? LOL

Vistors from Stateside need to get used to the way we do dates.
ie we do it day/month/year not month/day/year (logical*cough*)

Oh and ass is arse here.....we sit on our arses....

so how many of these actually get used?

 

[twilightprotege]

hahahaha, that's so funny....but hate to say you'll hear prob 40-50% of those

 

[jred321]

uh oh, and i thought i was going to a country where they spoke the same language as me

 

[twilightprotege]

you'll be right...we'll just laugh when you dont understand stuff

yep gotta keep an eye out for steve irwin on the road... he'll try to tackle ya car

haha got for a drive in a runout model BJ... would be fun (just the opposites thing...) but yes i highly recommend a drive in the Ford BA Falcon XR6 Turbo....... *pant*

like i have already said you really should go to sydney, but i won't hold that against ya...

QLD has heaps of Japanese imports, coz they get imported through QLD complianced for australia, and then are legal in every state of australia...... i need a silvia.... naaa i think i'd rather a GTR

How about direct import JDM Mazda Familia Sport20 AWD then add turbo??

 

[ahb11m]

btw, don't be silly and try to use the slang... we'll laugh harder...


i thought that the B&S ball was Blokes and Sheilas!!!

right don't follow any of these reccommendations, you want to drink Tooheys Extra Dry.. the only good beer here!!! failing that you should drink Coopers Pale Ale (green)

and yes the risk of hitting wildlife while driving is high... i've hit a roo once, cost AU$1400 to fix!!! (and the thing got up and bounced away..) hit eagles as theyyy like to eat the kangaroos on the road... and came close to hitting a cow.... only god knows why there was a cow in the middle of the road.... BTW if you are driving have a squizz at http://www.rat.gov.nsw.au there are some v. good points on driving here

the weird turns are called hook turns and you only need them in mexico... i mean victoria (south of the border.......)

 

[twilightprotege]

hook turns....damn trams
